Letter From Our Founder: I am the founder and lead photographer for The Mark Makers Organization. Our mission is to provide no cost documentation services to those affected by pediatric illness. I capture hope and fear, despair and resolve, love and heartache, joy and perseverance. I capture these things for families because they were captured for me. Because above Founder and Photographer comes my most important title...Mom. My youngest daughter has been fighting for her place in this world from the moment she came into it. We have spent much of her life living within hospital walls or in isolation. For families facing pediatric illness the most precious moments are often found in the darkest hours. These are the moments we document. The stories of balancing fear with hope and the images of triumph through treatment can become your most cherished memories. These are the events you thought would break you but will look back on and know they actually made you.
